      ext4: Fix race in ext4_inode_info.i_cached_extent · 2ec0ae3a
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      If two CPU's simultaneously call ext4_ext_get_blocks() at the same
      time, there is nothing protecting the i_cached_extent structure from
      being used and updated at the same time.  This could potentially cause
      the wrong location on disk to be read or written to, including
      potentially causing the corruption of the block group descriptors
      and/or inode table.
      
      This bug has been in the ext4 code since almost the very beginning of
      ext4's development.  Fortunately once the data is stored in the page
      cache cache, ext4_get_blocks() doesn't need to be called, so trying to
      replicate this problem to the point where we could identify its root
      cause was *extremely* difficult.  Many thanks to Kevin Shanahan for
      working over several months to be able to reproduce this easily so we
      could finally nail down the cause of the corruption.

      ext4: Clear the unwritten buffer_head flag after the extent is initialized · 2a8964d6
      Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于
      The BH_Unwritten flag indicates that the buffer is allocated on disk
      but has not been written; that is, the disk was part of a persistent
      preallocation area.  That flag should only be set when a get_blocks()
      function is looking up a inode's logical to physical block mapping.
      
      When ext4_get_blocks_wrap() is called with create=1, the uninitialized
      extent is converted into an initialized one, so the BH_Unwritten flag
      is no longer appropriate.  Hence, we need to make sure the
      BH_Unwritten is not left set, since the combination of BH_Mapped and
      BH_Unwritten is not allowed; among other things, it will result ext4's
      get_block() to be called over and over again during the write_begin
      phase of write(2).

      Extend erase timeout in M25P80 SPI Flash driver.
      
      The M25P80 drivers fails erasing sectors on a M25P128 because the ready

      x86, kexec: fix crashdump panic with CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP · 6407df5c
      Huang Ying 提交于
      Tim Starling reported that crashdump will panic with kernel compiled
      with CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP due to null pointer deference in
      machine_kexec_32.c: machine_kexec(), when deferencing
      kexec_image. Refering to:
      
      http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13265
      
      This patch fixes the BUG via replacing global variable reference:
      kexec_image in machine_kexec() with local variable reference: image,
      which is more appropriate, and will not be null.
      
      Same BUG is in machine_kexec_64.c too, so fixed too in the same way.

      Jan Beulich 提交于
      With the introduction of the .brk section, special care must be taken
      that no unused page table entries remain if _brk_end and _end are
      separated by a 2M page boundary. cleanup_highmap() runs very early and
      hence cannot take care of that, hence potential entries needing to be
      removed past _brk_end must be cleared once the brk allocator has done
      its job.

      random: make get_random_int() more random · 8a0a9bd4
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      It's a really simple patch that basically just open-codes the current
      "secure_ip_id()" call, but when open-coding it we now use a _static_
      hashing area, so that it gets updated every time.
      
      And to make sure somebody can't just start from the same original seed of
      all-zeroes, and then do the "half_md4_transform()" over and over until
      they get the same sequence as the kernel has, each iteration also mixes in
      the same old "current->pid + jiffies" we used - so we should now have a
      regular strong pseudo-number generator, but we also have one that doesn't
      have a single seed.
      
      Note: the "pid + jiffies" is just meant to be a tiny tiny bit of noise. It
      has no real meaning. It could be anything. I just picked the previous
      seed, it's just that now we keep the state in between calls and that will
      feed into the next result, and that should make all the difference.
      
      I made that hash be a per-cpu data just to avoid cache-line ping-pong:
      having multiple CPU's write to the same data would be fine for randomness,
      and add yet another layer of chaos to it, but since get_random_int() is
      supposed to be a fast interface I did it that way instead. I considered
      using "__raw_get_cpu_var()" to avoid any preemption overhead while still
      getting the hash be _mostly_ ping-pong free, but in the end good taste won
      out.

      [ARM] 5507/1: support R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC and MOVT_ABS relocation types · ae51e609
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      From: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>
      
      To fully support the armv7-a instruction set/optimizations, support
      for the R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC and R_ARM_MOVT_ABS relocation types is
      required.
      
      The MOVW and MOVT are both load-immediate instructions, MOVW loads 16
      bits into the bottom half of a register, and MOVT loads 16 bits into the
      top half of a register.
      
      The relocation information for these instructions has a full 32 bit
      value, plus an addend which is stored in the 16 immediate bits in the
      instruction itself.  The immediate bits in the instruction are not
      contiguous (the register # splits it into a 4 bit and 12 bit value),
      so the addend has to be extracted accordingly and added to the value.
      The value is then split and put into the instruction; a MOVW uses the
      bottom 16 bits of the value, and a MOVT uses the top 16 bits.
